I just spent the last few days in London just days before the big royal wedding. There definitely is a buzz about the wedding and some knick-knacks, but it was refreshing not to have it shoved down your throat every minute. I was watching a late night show in Wales Friday night and humored by the comics making fun of Americans wanting to capitalize on everything they can. They talked about Americans wanting the wedding to take place in the middle of the night so American's can watch it live and that there was a need for commercial breaks so more ads could be run. This is so true - I could have watched a whole night of TV last night about the royal wedding her in the US. The special I watched was so ridiculous too, the show was grasping at straws to find more royal wedding crap to talk about. They would have interview a bum that lived near Buckingham Palace if they could find one.
I found it refreshing to remember even the biggest wedding of this decade doesn't have to be blown out of proportion. I love wedding hype but you don't need to feel the growing pressure to go over the top. Don't forget to step back before your big day consumes you.
